The Bangladesh Cricket Board replaced two Divisional coaches for not fielding a leg spinner in their playing XI in the ongoing National Cricket League, country’s traditional first-class tournament.
Dhaka Division coach Mohammad Jahangir Alam have been replaced by Md Selim while Rangpur Divisional coach Masud Parvez Razon have been replaced by Jafrul Ehsan for the ongoing NCL.
BCB instructed Divisional coaches to field leg spinners in their playing XI if there is a leg spinner in their squad but Jahangir defied their order despite several insistence by the board and even after having Jubair in his squad he did not field him in the opening two games of NCL.
While Jahangir kept Jubair in his squad, Rishad Hossain was not even considered in the 14-member squad of Rangpur Division and this incident was noticed by BCB president Nazmul Hasan.
BCB president Nazmul Hasan said on Thursday that the board have summoned the coaches as they failed to field players as per their direction.
‘’We have summoned the two Divisional coaches for not fielding the two spinners in NCL,’’ Nazmul told reporters on Thursday.
‘’If we don’t let them bowl, how would they improve. They don’t get any opportunity in any tournament. So we are working on it,’’ he said.
‘’Even in NCL, I don’t know why it happens. We are talking so much about leg spinners, we have not played Rishad and Likhon yet in NCL,’’ he said.
‘’Why they are not in best 11 while they are selecting the team. So why this control is not in our hand.
We have asked two coaches to explain why they did not field them even after giving them the instruction. They must answer. We have called them. if we don’t let them play, how would they come in,’’ he said.
